Highlighting the Fermilab-led Superconducting Quantum Materials and Systems Center (August 3, 2023) Quantum is global, and I’m proof of that. Through an international postdoctoral fellowship from the National Science Foundation (NSF), I worked overseas at the Cavendish Laboratory in the United Kingdom, at the University of Melbourne in Australia, and at…
(July 24, 2023) The National Science Foundation introduced the National Quantum Virtual Laboratory (NQVL) concept with Solicitation NSF 23-604. This opportunity will foster a community-wide effort to facilitate the translation from basic science and engineering to the resultant technology, and at the same time emphasize and advance the scientific and technical…
(July 19, 2023) All five of the Department of Energy (DOE) National Quantum Information Science (QIS) Research Centers are sponsoring their third annual virtual QIS Career Fair on September 13, 2023. The QIS Career Fair aims to bring awareness to the wide range of QIS internships and careers available to…
(July 14, 2023) The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020 authorized the Secretary of each service to designate at least one quantum information science (QIS) Research Center. On June 14th, 2023, Secretary of the Army Christine Wormuth designated the Army Research Laboratory (ARL) as such a center. This…
